I tell my buddies that my back is out and they haul it out, lol.
I use that for calves, kids, and firewood, they're TUFF and I haven't always had snow, still trucking with minor scratches on the bottom and they're SLICK over dry groundI have seen guys use ice fishing sleds like this. They work well to move deer when there is snow. The also fit in the back of SUV's

I hate wheelbarrows on uneven ground.
wish we could do this in nyI started quartering deer in the field after hunting out west last year. You do leave some meat behind but coyotes certainly will pick up where you left off.
The other benifit of this method is there is less butchering to do after a long day hunting. It rarely stays cold enough to age deer here so I put the quarters in a cooler for about a week. Way better than going home and hanging a deer when you have work the next morning.
Mine is. I mean for real, and not just only some trivial slipped disc but my third pelvic vertabra having broken in half and both my tendons detached in a snowmobile accident in mid 90's. I literally had to re-learn to walk.I tell my buddies that my back is out and they haul it out, lol.
Why can't you? Against the rules or something in ny to quarter an animal in the field? Just curious.wish we could do this in ny
Years ago my dad was helping me drag a large mule deer buck out of the bottom of a ravine. Dad was giving me a mock scolding about shooting a deer where he could fall into a ravine. I responded with, "He didn't fall into the ravine, Dad. He was on the other side of the ravine when I shot him, and he dropped right where he was standing. I'm the one who dragged him down here. How else was I supposed to get him back to the truck?"I have an amazing knack for shooting a deer right where it will tumble down to the very bottom of a ravine.
yes 1 u cant leave the animal carcass in the wood even your own land and. 2 the tag has to stay with the carcass until called in and disposed of the the tag has to stay with the meetWhy can't you? Against the rules or something in ny to quarter an animal in the field? Just curious.
Horses work pretty well. Ride'm in. Put half an Elk on each one and lead'm out.
Troy's right, the DEC are really strict on making sure the carcass is intact and tagged.yes 1 u cant leave the animal carcass in the wood even your own land and. 2 the tag has to stay with the carcass until called in and disposed of the the tag has to stay with the meet
ya id quarter deer because most time i have a backpack on me. and some of are does can get up to 200 pounds. i try to shoot the deer up hill makes it much easier lolTroy's right, the DEC are really strict on making sure the carcass is intact and tagged.
As a non-American hunter that's something I've learned time and time again watching "Wardens" on Outdoor Channel. I think I'm decently prepared for legalities if I'll ever hunt in the US. However, I don't have a clue when and where it's legal to use a motorized vehicle to fetch your kill from the woods, I'm so used to a blanket ban on all off-road driving and carrying/pulling whatever I've killed that even a couple of hundred yards with an ATV would feel like a luxury.Troy's right, the DEC are really strict on making sure the carcass is intact and tagged.
here in new york u can use a atv any time u just cant shot from any motorized vehicles. some laws here are vary hard to fin out are real or not. like you can not have a loaded gun in the woods before sunrise but all the hunters in the morning have the gun loaded. same for the night its not reinforced here but dont piss of the wrong dec. i still cant ant get a good answer from dec on gutting fish in the water u catch then in some dec say its fine. i have friends that have gotten a ticket for it. then there are the u written roles u can not find in your hand book or there web sight.HQ if ever in the us love to have u over to hunt.As a non-American hunter that's something I've learned time and time again watching "Wardens" on Outdoor Channel.

It's quite the opposite around here. No vehicles allowed for anything, you'll have to be on foot at all times. Nighttime moonlight hunting is fine as long as you don't use night vision or artificial light (that's why people buy $2k+ 56mm ultra-bright German scopes), anything motorized outside the roads is a big no-no, and that's why this thread piqued my interest. Wheelbarrow might work, especially ones with dual wheels for balance, but the most common way to get a moose or big whitetail buck out of the woods is a flat sled made of plastic and having a bunch of people pull it.here in new york u can use a atv any time u just cant shot from any motorized vehicles. some laws here are vary hard to fin out are real or not. like you can not have a loaded gun in the woods before sunrise but all the hunters in the morning have the gun loaded. same for the night
